In the depths of winter, little mood-boosting treats can make all the difference. Whether it’s snuggling up with a cosy hot chocolate and escaping into a good book, refreshing your winter skincare routine, or lighting a gorgeous-smelling candle, our brands have everything you need to boost your mood this winter.
Bring joy to your January with a fabulous day out at the O2 Centre.
Stock up
Banish the January gloom and stock up on delicious and healthy treats to enjoy at home. From quality coffee and fresh pastries to scrummy cakes and savoury snacks, you’ll find plenty of tasty options to choose from at Sainsbury’s and Aldi. Why not try a healthy new recipe this month to wow your friends and family?
Nourish your skin
Cold winds, central heating, and dry air can take their toll on your skin, making hydration and nourishment more important than ever. Reset your skincare routine and give winter-worn skin the extra care it craves with rich, hydrating products. Refresh your bathroom cabinet with cold-weather essentials from Sainsbury’s and Aldi and treat yourself to a moment of daily self-care.
Have a bite to eat
Nothing beats a good catch up with your bestie over a delicious bite to eat or cosy coffee.
Warm up with your favourite coffee and enjoy a relaxed chat at SOHO Coffee, the perfect spot to linger when it’s cold outside. Or turn it into a proper treat with a flavour-packed lunch at Nando’s after a spot of retail therapy.
Lose yourself in a good book
Switch off, slow down and lose yourself in a good book – an easy escape that makes winter days feel a little brighter. Whether it’s a comforting reread or a story that transports you somewhere sunnier, a few quiet chapters can instantly lift your mood. You’ll find a fab selection of fiction and non-fiction at Waterstones. Curl up with a cosy blanket from Argos or BoConcept, make a delicious hot drink and create a small ritual just for you.
Cosy up
January is made for slowing down, staying in, and leaning into all things warm and comforting. Turn your space into a hygge haven with plush cushions, luxurious throws, and must-have homeware from Argos, BoConcept and Flying Tiger to see you through the month.
The magic of cinema
When the days are cold and dark, there’s nothing better than escaping to the warmth of the cinema. Catch the hottest new releases on the big screen – get set for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Mercy and Song Sung Blue – and enjoy the ultimate cinema experience at Vue. Sink into plush seats, experience immersive Dolby sound, take in every detail on the supersized screens and enjoy!
